Auto Image and Configuration Update
Easy Image Upgrade via USB
If a USB device is detected during bootup and there is an image on the USB
device, and the switch has no startup config file, then the image version is
checked against the active image version. If a newer image version is found on
the USB device, the image is copied to the switch and the switch reloads
using the new image.
1 Copy the startup-config file to the backup-config,; e.g., copy startup-
config backup-config .
2
Delete the startup-config file; e.g., del startup-config .
3
Put the new image on a cleanly formatted USB stick and insert the USB
stick into the stack master.
4
Reboot the stack master and skip the Easy Startup configuration wizard by
pressing N when prompted.
5 After the upgrade completes, copy the backup-config to the startup-config,
remove the USB stick, and reload the stack. The startup configuration is
migrated to the new syntax when loaded into the running-config. Check
the running-config, make and necessary adjustments, and then save the
running-config into the startup-config.
